摘要近年来,越南北方高地大力发展橡胶种植,特别是在农业生态不佳的西北部,其目的是改善少数民族的生活,并通过将农民转变为橡胶工人来实现农民的现代化。农民的大片土地被征用,为橡胶种植园让路。这种土地征用和农业转型以各种方式影响了当地人民及其生计。本文以民族志研究为基础,结合权威访谈和相关文献研究,重点探讨越南北方丘陵地区橡胶种植园的性别后果。它认为,成为橡胶工人和适应新生活方式的过程确实增加了妇女的新角色和责任。与此同时,它破坏了男子的价值观,并改变了家庭内外的两性关系。
Abstract In recent years, rubber plantations have been strongly promoted in the northern uplands of Vietnam–especially in the northwest, where it is an ill agro-ecological fit–with an aim to improve ethnic minority livelihoods and to modernize peasants by transforming them into rubber workers. A large area of land has been taken away from farmers to make way for rubber plantations. This land acquisition and agrarian transformation have impacted local people and their livelihoods in various ways. Drawing on ethnographic research, in combination with interviews with authorities and studying related documents, this article focuses on the gendered consequences of rubber plantation in northern uplands Vietnam. It argues that the process of becoming a rubber worker and adapting to the new way of living has indeed added new roles and responsibilities for women. At the same time, it has undermined men’s values and reshaped gender relations both within and outside the home.
